What to Expect During Your Massage Treatment

At your first massage appointment, you will be asked to fill out a form with some basic information. We’ll also ask about any injuries or physical problems that are troubling you. Next, one of our massage therapists will go over the treatment plan for your appointment, give you an idea of what to expect during your treatment, and answer any questions you might have. At this point, we’ll also ask if there are any areas on the body that need extra attention or time during the treatment. You'll then change into comfortable clothes, lie down on the table in whichever way feels most comfortable to you, and cover yourself with a sheet. For our part of the process, we'll begin by introducing ourselves, asking if it's okay to touch different parts of your body or just certain ones. You're welcome to stop us at any time - even before we get started - if something feels uncomfortable; it's always better for us to do less rather than more because doing too much can make things worse instead of better. During your treatment, it's natural for your mind to wander off - but don't worry about it! It just means that all the work is happening without being distracted by thoughts or concerns from outside sources like family members or work-related obligations.

After Your Massage Treatment

The massage treatment will be tailored to your needs. We'll ask you about any health conditions you have that may need attention, like lower back pain, to make sure your massage is as beneficial as possible. We'll also ask about what kind of pressure you prefer for the massage - light, medium or deep. The therapist will use their hands, forearms, elbows and heels to move the body's muscles in a systematic fashion so they can release tension from the area being treated. The therapist will also spend time on areas of soreness or tightness with gentle rocking motions. You can lie face down or on your side if that is more comfortable for you during the session. You will feel relaxed and rejuvenated after your treatment. Be sure to drink plenty of water afterwards and avoid strenuous activity. A few hours later, you should feel well rested and ready to tackle the day!
